Welcome to the forum lakeman! I really think the only logical thing for you to do now is go out and buy your self a Vette so that you will be properly in tune with the issues your wife might have with her car. Seems like a logical step to me.

A two Vette family...now that's the American dream!

Understood, 'Chaser.

Believe it or not, I've decided to spend more time on CorvetteForum to escape "mod fever" I picked up over on DodgeMagnum.net. I mean, I'd love to play games with my Magnum RT, but it's a daily driver that sits outside 24/7/365 -- but my C5 is my toy, and it's the one that justfies my cash.

Both cars (and both forums) will continue to get my attention, of course. Speaking of which, I think it's time to put the charger on the 'Vette...

Default Welcome Aboard!!!

The Vette; you're gonna love it It just goes to show you that it is never too late to get in the game. The only problem that I have is when my back starts acting up....GM needs to get a shoe horn to load us into the car under those circumstances.
